I think this is probably the smartest, and yet most obvious idea suggested in this thread. I've started to document this on the wiki. Vehicles: route=train http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:route%3Dtrain route=bus http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:route%3Dbus route=tram http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:route%3Dtram Infrastructure: route=railway http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:route%3Drailway (I'm not too fussed whether we use route=rail or route=railway, however it's been suggested that route=rail has been used already where route=train would be better) -- Frankie Roberto Experience Designer, Rattle 0114 2706977 http://www.rattlecentral.com
